Girl-Girl n Kittens

30th August 2003: Rescued recently, Girl-girl did not apear to be pregnant. It was a shock to find her with 3 newborn babies. One died. It was only after much coaxing that she accepted the two newborn for suckling.

31st August 2003: One of the two surviving kittens died and another kitten was found dead in the litter bin.

6th September 2003: In the wee morning hours, SY and her son were wakened by the shriek cries of kittens. They got out of the flat to search. SY found a kitten with bite marks on the face. A sibling was found. She brought the kittens home and in the later part morning, to MettaCattery.

With some apprehension, she put the 2 newborn kittens into the carrier where Girl-Girl, an extremely nervous grey cat (recently rescued from culling) was nursing the only surviving of 4 kittens, born on the 31st of August 2003.

Sadhu. Sadhu. Sadhu.. The grey-mother accepted the 2 newbies, who were bigger in size than her own one-week kitten. This universal motherly love will generate for Girl-girl tremendous amount of merit.
